Boomerpost

When an internet user, regardless of age, posts comments and/or memes poking fun at behaviors and trends which are commonly perceived as unique to millennial (this is in reference to the pseudo-feud between baby-boomers and millennial). These posts, when made by baby-boomers, are typically a way of voicing some level of concern and/or contempt for what they consider "typical millennial" behavior. When posted by other millennials, they are typically a way of that person showing contempt for his/her own generation.
Person A: *posts a picture of a revolver captioned "Fidget spinner... For men"*

Boomerism

Noun. A banal thought terminating cliche used by boomers and boomer sympathizers to convey the failed "conventional wisdom" of their generation. These cliche sayings are typical political or economic in nature and are refutable by hard real-world evidence.

The burden of evidence required to refute a "boomerism" is often substantial, requiring reference to the CPI (Consumer Price Index), Wage Index, or other economic data available on FRED (Federal Reserve Economic Data).

Millennials and Zoomers are too busy working their jobs as senior economic analysts, program directors, or serving coffee to pay off students loans, to refute boomerisms.

None the less, entitled boomers feel obliged to be provided with hours of high valued consulting work, at no cost, to disprove them. Millennials and Zoomers have adopted a strategy of responding to boomerism with the much less costly "Ok Boomer".
Boomer: "Well hello there youngster, what are you doing?"

40 y/o balding senior management wage slave: "Doing my taxes. It looks like I might be able to pay off my student loans and mortgage by the time I'm 83."

Boomer: "I see you are eating avocado toast there! You know, if you ate less avocado toast, and lived in a shoe, you could be free of debt by now!"

Waitress: "Now that's a boomerism, if I ever heard one."

40 y/o balding senior management wage slave: "Ok, boomer."

Boomer: "STOP! Ok Boomer is the new N-word!"

Bloomerdust

A substance or influence, with an apparently magical effect. Brought to America from Ireland centuries ago, it renders Irishmen in general and Hagan's in particular to fits of childish behavior. Such as waking up naked in cornfields in the wee hours of the morning, howling at the moon, leaving their wives and family's for butt ugly women with peanut butter legs and other acts of deprivation. Folk's believe they have been "Sprinkled by the fairy's with Bloomerdust." There is no known cure for it, only time may help.
That poor man has been hit with the Bloomerdust.
